About The Teacher Label
About The Teacher
Until the age of 12, I attended the smallest school Arkansas and probably the smallest in the United States: Snowball. I was the only one in the first grade; there were 5 of us in grades 1-3 and 32 in grades 1-12. Those early years convinced me that all students can achieve and have something to contribute to the class. One day, my 1st-3rd grade teacher, Mrs. Martin, asked me to work with a student who was having trouble understanding syllables. The gal thought "cowboy" had four syllables. The funny part was that the way we Hillbillies pronounced it, it did: "ca-yuh-bo-wee." I worked with her all morning but by the time recess was over, she could sing and stomp her foot to the "Cow-Boy" Song. Mrs. Martin hugged us both and said, "Why Deborah, I do believe you are a BORN teacher," I stuck my chest out and replied, "Yes, Ma'am. I am." That, as they say, was that. I believed in Mrs. Martin so much that I trusted what she saw in me, even though I could not see it in myself and certainly not in my circumstances. College seemed as far out of my reach as the moon. Here I am, three degrees later, wearing a rhinestone pin with matching earrings every day to honor her memory. Nadine Martin is still who I want to be when I grow up. In the same way I remember a teacher who changed my life because she believed in me, I hope you will remember me as someone who encouraged you to let your little light shine!
Mission For The Class Label
Mission For The Class
"We won't get anywhere if we don't get there together." Making speeches is to communication what being a podiatrist is to medicine: just one piece of the larger picture! We'll study interpersonal and small group communication, conflict management, gender differences in communication styles and cross-cultural communication. You'll leave Oral Comm class having gained a better understanding of yourself as a communicator.
